Hi guys, I´m a 25 year old female and have been lifting continuously for about 3.5 years. Although about 7 months ago I started focusing more on macros, tracking more accurately, and training consistently 4x a week. I haven´t lost much weight since then but definitely got stronger and lowered my body fat percentage, so I´d say I probably recomped.
However I´m still at 28% bf and am planning to cut to get to around 23% and then start my first lean bulk - by the time I start, I will have been training like this for almost a year. Right now most of my lifts are close to intermediate lifter strength standards.
My question is: if I´m an intermediate lifter but have never bulked before, how much weight/muscle should I plan on gaining per month? I don´t want to gain too much, expecting beginner gains, and then find out it was mostly fat. My guess is around 1-1.5 pounds per month, with half being muscle.
Thanks for the help and any advice you can give me :)
